Title: CD drives not working/not in the My computer folder
Post by: Phobix on October 23, 2006, 08:04:18 PM

I dunno what happend but both my CD drives or not working. When I go into my device manager it shows both of them with a ! next to them. My asus CD-S520/A4 and Sony DVD RW DRU-820A both say "Windows cannot load the device driver for this hardware. The driver may be corrupted or missing. (Code 39)" I tride to put new drives for them but didnt work. Any help would be very nice.

well I went down the list and nothing there seems to be whats happening.  When I uninstall both them and do a scan for new hardware it finds them and then a windows says a problem occured during hardware installation. Your new hardware may not be working correctly.

is the drive new? if so it may need installing..with a disk maybe.if not then there may just be a faulty connection in the motherboard or faulty wires, lol could be several things to be honest.
good luck fixing. /tongue.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':P\' />
